Contemplative Life

God-sightings at Corhaven in May 2015

On a personal retreat

“My time here helped me to clean my head, stop, be still and just rest in God’s presence.  He reminded me of all the ways that He has blessed me (definitely a weekend of gratitude) and convinced me about how I can be doing a better job of “loving others” despite a demanding job with long hours.”

During our group retreat on “Grow to the Next Level”

“I so appreciate not hearing one “should” while I am here – I only hear invitations at each retreat I attend”

“God communicated where I truly am in my spiritual journey and where I am looking and where I am not.”

“I had a strong sense of His companionship.  And deep love for me.”

“The teaching was rich, the food spectacular!  The beauty of hiking around being surprised at every turn – places to truly encounter the Lord.”

“God welcomed me to simply BE.  To take in the beauty, and ask Him about a next step.  He showed me a more clear picture of maturity and life with Him.”

On a men’s retreat from Baltimore

“We had a great time connecting with each other in such a beautiful location. Additionally, it was a really sweet time for us men to consider Jesus’ invitation to be his brother and its implications for our relationships with one another. Thank you for taking the time to provide the space and the teaching to allow us to grow closer to Jesus and closer to one another.”
